Winterberry Farm invites you to join us for two weekends to celebrate the true Spirit of Christmas!

​

Let's go back in time when people gathered together at the darkest, coldest time of year to remember the light and life eternal that flows through all things, the love that lives inside our hearts and is the hope of the world, and the joy that comes from opening our hearts and sharing with one another.  Experience what it's like as the traditions of Europe are painted onto a vintage, American farm backdrop.

​

This years festivities will be TWO weekends...

​

November 30, Noon - 8 pm.

Along with learning about some of the Christmas traditions, this lovely event will be part story, part concert, part sing- along, all sure to put you in the true Spirit of Christmas!  Leave with a song in your heart and a smile to last throughout the Christmas season.

          TOUR:  Christmas at the Hermitage - take a horse-drawn carriage ride from the farm to the estate next door which at one time was all part of the same property owned by George Kalbfleisch.  Mr. Kalbfleisch built the English Manor home and also added the Greek Revival detail to Winterberry's main barn along with the other outbuidings on the farm under the design of Tiffin architect, George Netcher.  The manor home which will be opened exclusively to support the vision of Winterberry Farm.  This 10,000 square foot home with one of only 13 Aeolian Skinner pipe organs in a private resident, will be open for personally guided, small group tours.
